SAFETY  — ECONOMY 
The  Longest  Life  Ceiling  Known 

Subject  to  any  Decorative  Scheme.

A FIRE  TEST 

to  determine  the  comparative  fire  resisting  qualities  of 

Steel  Ceilings  and  Plaster  Ceilings 

conducted  by 

Columbia  University,  New  York  City 

showed  the  following: 

After  12  minutes  the  ceiling  was  burned  through,  the 
lath  and  plaster  was  falling. 

After  20  minutes  the  lath  and  plaster  was  practically  all 
down  and  the  beams  were  burning  rapidly. 

After  15  minutes  flames  were  issuing  from  joints  of  the 
metal. 

After  20  minutes  the  metal  sheets  were  curling  away 
from  beams. 

After  45  minutes  flames  were  issuing  from  metal  joints. 
It  was  evident  that  the  beams  were  burning  freely.

Directions  for  Ordering  Metal  Ceilings 


Most  of  our  customers  now  list  and  order  material  required  for  their  work, 
but  if  we  are  called  upon  to  prepare  working  drawings,  it  is  absolutely  neces- 
sarv  that  accurate  information  he  given  in  regard  to  the  size  and  shape  of  room 
to  be  ceiled. 

We  prefer  to  have  a diagram  or  sketch  of  the  room,  showing  all  angles  and 
offsets,  such  as  chimneys,  skylight  openings,  girders,  beams,  posts,  etc.  Be 
especially  careful  to  give  the  exact  measurements  of  all  sides  of  room  and  the 
location  and  size  of  all  offsets,  openings,  etc.  If  any  beams  project  below 
ceiling,  locate  same  and  give  size  of  the  face  and  the  depth,  and  state  whether 
wood  or  iron.  Subdivided  measurements  should  always  equal  total  measure- 
ments of  length  or  width  of  room. 

Give  the  size  of  Cornice  to  be  used  and  state  whether  same  can  be  used 
on  all  sides  of  the  room,  or  if  a smaller  Cornice  or  Mould  is  to  be  used  across 
openings  or  windows  that  extend  to  the  ceiling. 

Designate  plainly  spaces  that  are  not  to  be  ceiled  with  metal. 

Too  much  care  cannot  be  exercised  in  furnishing  proper  dimensions  and 
correct  information  in  regard  to  Ceiling  wanted.  Measurements  once  planned 
to  a design  and  afterwards  changed,  will  in  most  cases  work  a hardship  in  the 
erection. 

If  the  Side  Walls  are  to  be  covered,  give  the  height  of  walls  and  measure- 
ments of  all  openings  and  offsets. 

Be  sure  to  indicate  preference  as  to  design  for  both  Ceiling  and  Walls,  and 
if  possible  give  preference  of  a second  and  third  choice.  If  left  to  our  judg- 
ment we  will  furnish  what  we  think  should  be  appropriate,  taking  into  consid- 
eration the  size  and  shape  of  rooms  and  the  kind  of  occupancy.

TELEGRAPHIC  CODE 
Instructions  for  Use 


To  simplify  and  reduce  the  expense  of  handling  telegraphic  inquiries  and 
orders  requiring  the  use  of  more  than  ten  words,  the  following  private  code 
has  been  adopted  and  will  hereafter  be  used  by  this  company. 

In  transmitting  messages  to  the  Telegraph  Company  it  is  recommended  that 
all  code  words  be  typewritten  or  printed  to  avoid  mis-spelling  and  consequent 
errors.  Many  code  words  are  very  similar,  but  have  different  meanings. 

All  telegraphic  inquiries  and  orders  should  be  confirmed  by  letter  the  same 
day  they  are  sent,  and  plainly  marked  “CONFIRMATION”  to  avoid  error  and 
duplication.  We  will  not  hold  ourselves  responsible  for  the  duplication  of  any 
telegraphic  order,  the  confirmation  of  which  is  not  marked  in  this  manner. 

When  wiring  us  about  an  order  always  give  our  order  number,  or  your 
number,  date  or  items  called  for,  so  we  can  identify  same  without  difficulty. 

All  shipping  promises  are  computed  from  the  day  the  order  reaches  this 
office,  not  including  the  day  of  receipt.  We  assume  no  responsibility  for  failure 
to  fulfill  shipping  promises,  due  to  causes  beyond  our  control. 

Telegraphic  Code  Words  are  shown  in  Italics,  beneath  illustrations.
